**andysutils** · 12-03-2006 01:20 AM

Cant wait for my Thailand trip, I'm gonna be training 6 days a week for 3-6 hours a day, first session starts at 6am, the trip is for 3 weeks and i should certainly learn a thing or two training with the real McCoy.

I'm nervous about though to say the least.

Anyway just though id share that with all

certainly will do m8, i gotta make one decision after i get back because its Xmas time which ususally = beer time lol, but depending on how conditioned i am when i return, it will be worth sacrificing this Xmas beer time to push myself further than Ive ever gone before.

Good thinking ,you could always sip an expensive drop of red or a straight shot of wiskey, like a real man

...or something else less fattening than beer.

me too more than anything, I ain't to keen on the British techniques run around style of Thai boxing, I much much prefer to fight the toe2toe leap stance style like the Thais do, even though ill never get to fight a real Thai fighter.

I fought a Thai fighter once, about a year ago.

He was really small and fast, used a lot of feints to try and draw my lead and then he would come in from the side with hooks and roundhouse kicks. He was a tough guy, as he really took a pounding as the fight went an and my superior weight began to tell.

Still, although the other customers in the restaurant were quite shocked, my prawn crackers WERE soggy.
